Although I've had a separate website since 1996, I like to keep a blog as it is more dynamic than my main site. My main website is much more static and is more of an 'About Me' source of information. As well as having photos of myself, my car and my knee surgery, it also tells the story of my transformation from an unhappy, obese young girl to that of an athletic young woman, 42 kilograms later!!
However if you've found yourself here, all you get is my random, semi-regular rants and raves!

Save Jericho!

At 2 p.m. on May 16, 2007, CBS announced its 2007-2008 primetime slate. Jericho was not on it. The network has decided that it wasn't worth the fight to relaunch it for a second season.

Jericho's fans think differently. Over the past season Jericho, Kansas has becomethe place we faithfully visit every Wednesday night (and for some - on several additional nights during the week). It has become our second home.

This is where we make our stand!

We are tired of the networks (not just CBS) tossing aside quality programming. Most of us have never tried to fight for a TV show. But some thing is different about this one - It is like no show that has been on TV before. Throughout the year it has made us think - now it has made us stand up and say - ENOUGH! We're going to fight for this one.

Why nuts? In the final episode Jake Green (Skeet Ulrich) borrowed the historic phrase "NUTS" in response to a final offer of surrender from a hostile neighboring town. CBS decided to cancel the show, and fans are uprising to save Jericho by sending, you got it, NUTS to CBS executives.

Bring back Jericho, CBS!! And Channel Ten are now bringing back the rest of Season 1 just to disappoint further masses of viewers in Oz, by simply deciding not to air a Season 2! (In fact, I think it lost against that 'Kidstown' cheap-reality-cereal-box crap they call reality-tv!)

Well enough ranting. I decided to make a small contribution to the huge shipment of NUTS going to CBS offices - it's currently at just over 17,000 lbs (just under 8 tonnes) so far!!
